Definitions
- This invention relates to an electromagnetic transducer, and, more particularly relates to a lightweight high power electromagnetic transducer capable of use as a motor, alternator or generator.
- Electromagnetic transducers are known for use both in transforming electrical power into mechanical power and transforming mechanical power into electrical power. In both cases, power producing capability results due to relative movement between magnetic elements and electrically conductive elements, as is well known, for example, in the application of this phenomenon to motors, alternators and generators.
- motor, alternator and generator devices can be made that are quite light in weight, and while at least some known lightweight devices have been capable of operation at high speeds, such devices have not been capable of operation at high speeds to produce high power.
- high power density devices of 0.6 horsepower per pound of weight are known for intermittent operation, but such devices are incapable of continuous operation at high power densities in excess of 1.0 horsepower per pound.
- an electromagnetic transducer can include a stator and rotor arrangement, and that such an arrangement can include positioning magnetic elements on the rotor (see, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,663,850, 3,858,071, and 4,451,749), as well as on the stator (see, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,102,964, 3,312,846, 3,602,749, 3,729,642 and 4,114,057). It has also been heretofore suggested that a double set of polar pieces could be utilized (see, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,517,484).
- an electromagnetic transducer could have a power to weight ratio of up to about one horsepower to one pound (see, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,275,683).
- cooling of a motor, to increase power handling capability, using a gas, liquid, or a mixture of a gas and liquid, is well known (see, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,128,364).
- This invention provides an improved electromagnetic transducer that is lightweight and yet provides high power conversion due to the high power density capability of the transducer, with the transducer being capable of operation as a highly efficient motor, alternator or generator, with the transducer of this invention being capable or continuous operation at high power densities in excess of 1.0 horsepower per pound.
- High power density per unit weight is effected by utilization of an armature assembly having dispersed conductors which are separated by dispersed-phase flux carrying elements in a manner such that low opposing induced currents are created, as well as low eddy currents, to enable operation of the transducer at high efficiency with high torque being maintainable during high speed operation.

- a novel electromagnetic transducer is particularly described herein, including alternate embodiments thereof. It is meant to be realized that the electromagnetic transducer of this invention may be utilized as a motor (ac or dc), alternator or generator, depending on whether an electrical signal is conveyed to the armature (commonly through a commutator or equivalent structure), to create a force causing movement of the magnetic flux producing structure relative to the armature thus driving the shaft, or whether the shaft is rotated to thereby cause movement of the magnetic flux producing structure relative to the armature to create an electromotive force which, in turn, can cause movement of current along the conductors of the armature to be coupled from the conductors as an electrical signal, as is well known.
- ac or dc alternator or generator
- Electromagnetic transducer 35 is lightweight and yet is capable of delivering high power, with the transducer being a high power density device that is particularly well suited, for example, for use in conjunction with self-propelled vehicle applications, such as passenger cars, although the invention is not meant to be restricted thereto.
- a permanent magnet, hollow cylinder electromagnetic transducer 35 When used for vehicle propulsion, a permanent magnet, hollow cylinder electromagnetic transducer 35 may be utilized as an efficient wheel mounted traction motor, and may, as indicated in FIG. 3, be mounted directly at each wheel 37, adjacent to axle 39, with drive being preferably achieved through gear reduction mechanism 41.
- electromagnetic transducer 35 includes an outer cylindrical housing 43, which housing has front and rear end plates 45 and 46 positioned at the opposite ends of the cylindrical housing by means of snap rings 48 and 49.
- a shaft 51 has a central portion 52 extending through the cylindrical housing with the shaft being mounted in central hubs 54 and 55 of end plates 45 and 46, respectively, by means of bearings 57 and 58 so that the central portion of the shaft is coaxially positioned with respect to the cylindrical housing, the reduced diameter rear portion 60 of the shaft is mounted in bearing 58, and the front portion 62 of the shaft extends forwardly of front end plate 45, with seal 64 being positioned in hub 54 adjacent to bearing 57.
- blower 65 is positioned adjacent to back, or rear, end plate 46, which plate includes offset air intake aperture 66 and a plurality of exhaust apertures 67 spaced about and near the periphery of the end plate.
- the transducer thus operates in a gas (air) medium (as opposed to a fluid medium which could include oil or the like, for example, as do some known transducers).
- an arcuate aperture 68 is positioned to allow armature conductor connections through end plate 46.
- rotor 70 has a double shell configuration provided by inner and outer spaced cylindrical portions 72 and 73 which extend normally from mounting disk 75 so that cylindrical portions 72 and 73 are coaxial with, and inside, cylindrical housing 43 and define an annular gap 72A therebetween.
- Mounting disk 75 has an annular mounting portion 77 which is received on splined portion 78 of shaft 51 inwardly of bearing 57.
- Inner cylindrical portion 72 of rotor 70 has magnetic elements 80 mounted thereon, which magnetic elements are shown to be permanent magnets (but electromagnets could be utilized, if desired).
- Inner and outer walls 72 and 73, respectively, are formed of highly magnetically permeable with low hysteresis loss magnetic material (such as iron or steel, for example), and mounting disk 75 is formed of non-magnetic material (such as plastic or aluminum, for example), while magnetic elements 80 are high strength permanent magnets, which magnets are preferably formed of neodymium boron ferrite (NdFeB), but may also be formed of barium ferrite ceramic (BaFe Ceramic), samarium cobalt (SmCo), or the like.
- NdFeB neodymium boron ferrite
- BaFe Ceramic barium ferrite ceramic
- SmCo samarium cobalt
- Armature 82 comprises an annular member at least partially disposed within gap 72A and is fixed with respect to housing 43, and is mounted on rear end plate 46, as indicated in FIG. 2, so that rotor 70 rotates relative to armature 82 (as well as to housing 43). Armature 82 is thus a stationary cylindrical shell element that extends through the length of cylindrical housing 43 between the inner and outer cylindrical walls 72 and 73 of the rotor.
- armature 82 include dispersed conductors 84, as best shown in FIG. 4, different sections 85 of which are positioned between flux carrying elements 80 as best shown in FIG. 6.
- the conductors 84 have discrete, spaced apart active regions 84A, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.
- active regions 84A have a substantially rectangular cross-section.
- a flux carrying means formed of a plurality of flux carrying members 86 of compressed iron powder are interposed in open space areas 86A between active regions 84A.
- Dispersed conductors 84 are preferably formed from a bundle of small diameter copper wires 87 surrounded by insulating material 88 (as best shown in FIG. 11), with conductors 84 being wound into a linking pattern, as indicated by way of example in FIG. 5, with the opposite ends of the wire bundles being connected to connectors 89 extending through aperture 68 in end plate 46, as indicated in FIG. 2.
- conductors 84 are formed into a bundle throughout the armature (as by being wound in a ring, for example), and each turn of the wire windings has a flux carrying element 86 therebetween, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, with a typical winding which constitutes a structurally integral annular winding structure, being conceptually illustrated in FIG. 5.
- Flux carrying elements 86 are preferably iron (at least in part), and extend between the active region or length 84A of conductors 84. Elements 86 have radially inner 86B and radially outer 86C elongated edges (see FIG. 5). Conductors 84 also have flat end turns 84B at which the winding conductors 84 are reversed in direction (see FIGS. 4 and 5) that extend beyond the active lengths 84A to connect the active lengths to each other in an appropriate pattern, such as a wave winding as shown, by way of example, in FIG. 5. The flux carrying elements 86 are preferably dispersed-phase flux carrying members to handle the high frequency magnetic field reversals with low opposing induced currents and low eddy current losses.
- iron is electrically conductive, it must be dispersed to avoid (or at least minimize) the creation of opposing induced currents. It has been found that a suitable flux carrying element 86 can be pressed from fine (10-100 m kron) iron powder previously reactively coated with phosphate insulation and using "B" stage epoxy and wax as binders.
- a stationary armature shell incorporating windings of copper with powdered iron bars to carry the magnetic flux, and permeated with glass re-enforced novolac epoxy insulation material cast as a bonding agent 180 between the windings and bars, has been successfully utilized.
- armature 82 (formed by the dispersed conductors 84 and flux carrying members 86) are closely spaced with respect to magnets 80 positioned about the inner cylindrical wall 72, and also closely spaced with respect to cylindrical wall 73, with walls 72 and 73 providing inner and outer return paths, respectively, for the magnetic flux.
- Some typical flux paths have been illustrated in FIG. 6. As shown, these flux paths are loops each of which penetrates the armature twice passing principally through the flux carrying members 86. The flux carrying members thus allow a thick armature to maintain a high flux density which is essential to high torque.
- the electromagnetic transducer may also be configured by placing magnets 80 on outer wall 73 (rather than on inner wall 72). As indicated in FIG. 8, the electromagnetic transducer may also be configured by placing magnets 80 on both inner and outer walls 72 and 73.
- an armature 82 can also be provided at both sides of magnets 80.
- the electromagnetic transducer could be configured by placing additional layers of armature-rotor elements radially inwardly and/or outwardly of that shown in the drawings.
- flux carrying members 86 in the above embodiment are rectangular in cross-section, the flux carrying members may also be configured by utilizing a non-rectangularly shaped member such as, for example, an l-shaped member 91 (as indicated in FIG. 10) having dispersed conductors 84 extending therebetween.
- the armature can also be configured as shown in FIG. 12 such that flux carrying elements 93 are formed as a coating of highly permeable magnetic material (such as iron) on some or all of the dispersed conductors 94.
- conductors 94 can also have an insulation layer 95 thereon so that insulation layer 95 is between the conductor and the flux carrying element.
- an insulating layer 96 covers the flux carrying element (unless it is, of itself, electrically non-conductive).
- the flux carrying bars (shown in FIGS. 4 through 10) need not be utilized.
- the dispersed conductors 94 with the flux carrying elements coated thereon can be utilized as the only elements of the armature (as indicated in FIG. 14) or can be alternated with dispersed conductor sections 85, i.e., dispersed conductors having no flux carrying element coating thereon (as indicated in FIG. 15).
- Powdered iron utilized as flux carrying elements 86 provide three-dimensional phase dispersion, while flux carrying elements 93 coated on the dispersed conductors (as indicated in FIGS. 12 and 13) provide two-dimensional phase dispersion (iron lamination bars, on the other hand, when used as flux carrying elements provide only one-dimensional phase dispersion).
- the electromagnetic transducer of this invention thus includes a magnetic flux producing assembly (having at least one pair of poles which can be embodied by using permanent magnets or electromagnets), and an armature assembly (which intercepts the magnetic flux produced by the magnetic flux producing assembly and has an alternating structure of conductive windings and flux carrying elements, which flux carrying elements can be referred to as armature iron).
- a winding can be used as the principal component of the armature with the winding consisting of bundles of separate conductors (which are referred to herein as dispersed conductors), with the use of dispersed conductors of fine wire permitting high speed rotation of the rotor when used in conjunction with dispersed-phase flux carrying elements.
- a means to displace (i.e., rotate) the magnetic field relative to the armature at high speed must, of course, also be provided so that electric power can be converted into mechanical power in a manner similar to that used by known motors. As indicated in FIG. 2, this can be accomplished by connecting leads 97 between connectors 89 of armature 82 and current generator and controller unit 98 so that unit 98 which provides current to conductors (see FIG. 10) to cause rotation of rotor 70, with rotation of rotor 70 causing rotation of shaft 51 to drive a load/actuator 99.
- load/actuator 99 When used as an alternator or generator, load/actuator 99 causes rotation of shaft 51 which rotates rotor 70 to induce a voltage on conductors 84 and thereby generates electrical current flow from conductors 84 to a load 98.
- the current generator and controller unit or alternately the armature; includes necessary electric commutation devices, including those devices wherein commutation is performed electronically (as in a brushless DC motor, for example), as well as those devices which employ rectifiers instead of commutation (as is often used in power generating applications).
- FIG. 16 illustrates an embodiment of the electromagnetic transducer of this invention in which armature 82 is connected with shaft 51, and inner and outer cylindrical walls 72 and 73 are fixed to housing 43.
- the armature thus becomes the rotor with electric power being communicated with the armature by means of brushes 102, slip rings (not identified in FIG. 16) (with brushes being utilized in the case of a DC machine, and slip rings being utilized in the case of an AC machine).
- the embodiment shown in FIG. 16 is preferred for some applications, particularly in the case of a DC commutated machine.
- the transducer of this invention has a significant advantage over a conventional motor by utilization of a minimum amount of iron which undergoes flux reversal. That is, only the iron in the flux carrying elements in the armature is subject to the reversing flux as each pole is passed, and thus low hysteresis losses are experienced. In addition, the effects of flux leakage are reduced so that all of the armature windings experience the total flux change and thus are equally useful at producing torque.
- the device of this invention also has significant heat transfer advantages. For this reason, the superior high power to weight ratio is further enhanced.
- a thin armature is made possible by the armature being made up entirely of insulated conductors except for the necessary volume of the flux carrying members. It is therefore possible to provide cooling to both the inner and outer surfaces of the armature.
- heat buildup in an armature depends on the square of its thickness. For example, compare an armature 0.25 inches thick (as is possible in this invention) to a solid rotor, five inches in diameter (as is common in known devices). The heat buildup in such known devices is some 400 times as great as that of the transducer of this invention with such an armature. Clearly, the electromagnetic transducer of this invention can dissipate more heat than any known conventional transducer of similar power rating.
- the electromagnetic transducer of this invention can be produced in several topological variations of the basic design.
- the motor can be made to produce a linear motion.
- Other variations include pancake and conical configurations.
- FIG. 17 illustrates a linear reciprocating implementation of the electromagnetic transducer of this invention wherein the magnetic flux producing section moves linearly with respect to the armature in a cylindrical configuration.
- armature 105 has dispersed conductors 106 and flux carrying elements 107 wound radially about shaft 51 (rather than extending parallel thereto as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1), and rotor 109 has magnets 110 thereon that extend circumferentially around inner cylindrical wall 72 (rather than extending parallel to shaft 51 as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1).
- FIG. 18 illustrates another linear reciprocating implementation of the electromagnetic transducer of this invention in which the structure is flat.
- magnets 113 are mounted on flat lower return plate 114.
- Armature 115 is provided with dispersed conductors 116 and flux carrying elements 117 in the same manner as described hereinabove with respect to the other embodiments illustrated except that the armature is essentially flat rather than cylindrical.
- An upper return plate 118 is also provided, and armature 115 is movable linearly with respect to, and between, lower and upper plates 114 and 118 by means of rollers 120 mounted on the edges of upper plate 118 and rollers 121 mounted in roller mounting boxes 122 (carried by lower plate 114).
- the electromagnetic force was measured in an actual test in a linear configuration similar to that illustrated in FIG. 18, built to test computer simulation of a rotary configuration.
- a current of 125 amps produced a force of 50 lb.
- the measured magnetic field (using Type 8 ceramic magnets) was 3500 gauss.
- the active conductor length spanned three of the four poles and consisted of twenty bars of copper, each 0.150 ⁇ 0.3125 inches in cross section.
- the force was calculated to be 45 lb.
- the measured force of 50 lb compares well with the calculated force of 45 lb considering the accuracy of the test (for example, the magnetic field is not absolutely uniform everywhere, and fringing field effects were not considered).
- the electromagnetic transducer of this invention is thus able to provide an output power to weight ratio that is greater than one horsepower to one pound in a cooling gas medium (using air as the cooling medium), and is believed to be greater than five horsepower to one pound in at least some cooling mediums (with a five to one ratio being calculated for the prototype motor as set forth herein). It should be further appreciated from the foregoing that this invention provides an improved electromagnetic transducer that is lightweight, compact, efficient and yet capable of delivering high power.
